Artist Statment:

This week in photography we studied Richard Avedon who is famous in fashion and photography. We learned that to create his recipe for success; there is a variety of requirements needed within the photograph. The main idea of this recipe is to show vulnerability in the face of the subject. Also, there needs to be a white background with nothing obstructing the subject or causing a distraction. For the final requirement, there needs to be a white and black filter for the photo. These new techniques will be very useful for later when we are creating our own projects.
